حَدَّثَنَا ابْنُ أَبِي عُمَرَ ، حَدَّثَنَا مَرْوَانُ بْنُ مُعَاوِيَةَ ، عَنْ يَحْيَي بْنِ سَعِيدٍ ، عَنْ ذَكْوَانَ أَبِي صَالِحٍ ، عَنْ أَبِي هُرَيْرَةَ ، قَالَ : قَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ : لَوْلَا أَنَّ رِجَالًا مِنْ أُمَّتِي ، وَسَاقَ الْحَدِيثَ ، وَقَالَ : فِيهِ وَلَرَوْحَةٌ فِي سَبِيلِ اللَّهِ أَوْ غَدْوَةٌ خَيْرٌ مِنَ الدُّنْيَا وَمَا فِيهَا .
It has been narrated on the authority of Abu Hurairah (RA) that the Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) said: If some persons of my Umma (were not to undertake the hardships of Jihad), and he ( Abu Hurairah (RA) ) then narrated the rest of the hadith and then said: A journey undertaken for jihad in the evening or morning merits a reward better than the world and all that is in it.
